2 Gedanken zu „International Kite Festivals: FANOE (DK)“

children grow up in one of the most cutthroat enrnvonmeits kids are mean! and usually fall into such a gendered view of the world usually due to some seriously bad parenting that reinforces, primarily, two things:1) that boys and girls are different and like opposite things this is oppositional sexism2) that what boys like is generally better than what girls like this is traditional sexism, and manifests in subtle ways in the west for example, girls are encouraged to do traditionally boyish activities i won’t call them male‘ activities because that’s stupid (nothing about having an x-y chromosome and a penis makes you think‘ a certain way that is supposedly similar to all people with an xy in their genome and a penis). Girls are, in recent times, encouraged to do things like play sports and learn technological skills and things like that only because it’s seen as empowering and perhaps they are. They are also encouraged to do things that are traditionally boyish‘. but boys are NEVER encouraged or even allowed (i hesitate using these words you were spot on in your commentary about encouraging/allowing, and I don’t care what you call it, what you’ve done with your son is to raise him right not that you need my validation for it!) at any rate, boys are never given the freedom of expression in such a regimented society to participate in traditionally girlish activities -this is in part because girlish activities/girl interests are seen as weak, cowardly, inferior, and something that a boy, someone in a position of privilege, wouldn’t want to get himself into. it is sad. But your C.J. honestly is so lucky to have you as his mum and to learn to ignore/stand up for his rights. eventually I’m sure he’ll learn to arm himself with the proper terms and vocabulary, when the time comes, to really take on the world if he so wishes. I wish you and your family the best. And please, please do keep writing! I’m devouring these articles and appreciating what you, an adult living in this gendered world, are doing.

Fantastic website you have here but I was wanting to know if you knew of
